Description
In this painting, titled Winter Landscape, Danish artist Egon Banke (1929-1992) has created a scene filled with movement and energy. Throughout his body of work, the artist appears to have been interested in exploring the boundaries between the figurative and abstraction. In this particular painting, he leans heavily into the abstract.
In this oil on canvas, the artist’s observations of nature and outdoor elements are clear through the colour palette of earthy tones and gestural paint marks – typical hallmarks of work by Banke. Smooth areas of paint towards the top of the canvas contrast with unblended dashes of white and grey that appear to have been applied with a flat tool or palette knife, creating a sense of hard, icy surfaces.
